What a lovely start to your holiday. I always enjoy reading your trip reports and am so glad for you that there's another one as I know you had thought you weren't going to return. The room at grand Floridian looks stunning. Looking forward to reading more.

Clare,
What an amazing trip report I'm glued, mainly because for the first time ever next year I am going solo, I am staying at Beach Club (a real treat) as I too love Epcot and cannot wait to walk through the 'backdoor' whenever I feel like it.

I have been a little worried about eating alone but definitely up for Tepan Edo and I just hope I get lovely friendly people on my table, otherwise I may just have to be rude back

BUT, and I now blame you for this clare, I may have to go again in 2016 and stay at Wilderness lodge! And I don't care if that means cancelling all family birthdays and christmases hehe

Keep up the good work. When are you off there next?

Sarah

Oh, what a room and what a view. Fabulous.

Shame on the cab driver and the rude lady at Teppan Edo. Sounds like they both need a bit of Disney magic and sparkle to me!

Another lovely day, shame you weren't able to extend your flight.

That view is absolutely gorgeous!

Another lovely day, I always think the same of teppan edo - why do people bother if they don't at least acknowledge their table mates politely? That said the food is fab :-) xx

How nice that you enjoyed WL more than you expected. GF looks just amazing, can't wait to have lunch in GFC. Your room and all the finishing touches look really fab. Nice day !

I really struck it lucky with views, I didn't ask for anything at WL and only 4th floor at GF - sometimes I think it's best not to expect or ask for too much and let the CMs work their magic

The turn down service is a nice touch as well as the fresh flower. They really do think of everything don't they? The spa toiletries look lovely too
Some people are so unDisney aren't they

I had fab housekeepers again this time, I think by my leaving my room tidy for them it gave them time to do other things like leaving extra little touches. I love the spa toiletries and my local M&S sell them too

Thanks Sarah you will have a fab time, I love the Epcot areas so much, we just had a miserable woman on our table but I'm sure you'll be fine, if not I agree with your sentiment lol

Lol re the Wilderness Lodge, such a stunning resort.

I really struck lucky with that view, loved it.

It does make me giggle when people book Teppan Edo but don't want to sit on a communal table
